Blackmagic Production Camera 4K vs Red One vs Canon C100



Sherwin Lau from Walk/Humbly Films passed along this simple ‘blind’ test between the Blackmagic Production Camera 4K, Red One and the Canon C100:


RED ONE M had the Zeiss 35mm Superspeed MK II at T2.8 @ 320ISO, 4K 16:9

BMPC4K had a Rokinon 35mm Cine at T2.8-4 split @ 400ISO, UHD

C100 had a Rokinon 85mm Cine at T2.8, 1080P upscaled to 4K


A very basic color correction was applied to match the three cameras as best as possible, but I could’ve spent more time matching them.


I think some of the difference between the two cameras come from the two different lenses I used (Zeiss on the RED and Rokinon for BMPC4K). Sensor size on the RED ONE is a little bit bigger but not a huge difference.


What’s great is how passable the C100 looks when upscaled to 4K.
